Ye no need for that no matter how frustrated it was,fair play to Swansea,do like the way they knock the ball about,Chelsea didn't look interested to me lots of possession but no cutting edge,can't believe they didn't give it a good go in last half hr...
It's a fucking disgrace, Ok so the kid might have been time-wasting.. but you don't lash out a kid.
Yet again a footballer shows that they are getting further away from the fans! I've seen lads applauding it on Facebook I don't find it one bit funny , hope the cunt get a long ban and abuse at every single away ground as lets face it no fine is really going to effect him!
apparently the 17yr old son of the director, hazards what 22, wrong yes, but talking about making a meal of something, he lay on the ball for fucks sake, get a grip fellas.
^^^^^....agreed....the wee guy is at fault.....its only because the ball never came out cleanly from under him when hazard kicked it that everyone is saying he kicked the boy...he kicked the ball because the wee guy was deliberately wasting time by lying on top of it...whats he supposed to do ???...imo the ballboy is the one who`s done most wrong....he`s not a wee kid either..hes 18 ffs
He's 17, first of all what the fuck is he doing being a ball boy at that age! I take it back what i said!! That changes everything, I still think modern football is going mad/ I still fund it with a season ticket everybloody year but 17!!!
tbh, the epitome of modern football and British society in one little incident.

Got a text last night saying "hazard just kicked a ball boy in the chest for time wasting" and expected to see a Cantona-esque kung fu kick aimed at a 12 year old but instead there's a lad old enough to be on the park rolling around on top of the ball. Fair enough Hazard was out of order but the lad needs to get a grip, fucking 17 and acting like that!
You say that, but some of my best acting up was done at that age. And that probably goes for a lot of lads as well. Pretty much every teenage boy acts the cunt, and he's no different.
It's a total non-event, Pat Nevin spoke very well about it on the Today programme this morning, rescind the red card and let's all try to get on with our lives.

Big difference between acting like a cunt (acceptable) and acting like a daft wee lassie.
I'm in full support of Hazard here, if it was your team in chelsea's shoes you'd be spitting at the time! Cocky little cunt deliberately covering the ball and with no intention of giving it back. Hazard clearly kicked the ball and this little cunt rolls around like he's had a Bruce Lee roundhouse to the ribs. All of a sudden he's crying out to the ref. Are you taking the piss mate? He's doing what half the prem do on a weekly basis. Play-acting. He's primed for football in this age, playing up to the ref at any cost to get players sent off and better his team.
To be honest, i think it was Ashley Williams that ran over and had a right benny at Hazard, he'll be feeling a bit silly this morning aswell.

Agreed. Hazard wanted to get the ball quickly and the kid was time wasting. Hazard kicked the ball from underneath him. Media, as usual, blow things out of proportion. Hazard probably should have just remonstrated with the ref to get the kid to hurry up but still think a big deal was made outta nowt.
I didn't see the incident live but saw it on SSN shortly after and have to say what a typical over reaction but I wouldn't expect anything other tbf. Firstly I'm not condoning what Hazard did, he was bang out of order and he should'nt have done what he did. Evenso, for me the kids at fault, absolutely stupid thing to do and asking for trouble. As G mentioned above he even tweeted before the game saying he intended doing it! 17 year old son of one of the Director's apparently. I'm sure Hazard will get punsihed but ffs its got to be kept in perspective imo but somehow I can't see that happening with the tits in charge at the FA.
also, unless I'm mistaken, didn't SKY show a clip of him stalling the ball about 10mins prior and some of the Chelsea players were shouting at the ref about it?
Sad thing is it overshadowed 2 great legs by Swansea who thoroughly deserved it and more to the point for me, overshadowed the fact that the European Champions could barely muster a shot on goal nevermind a goal over 2 legs. And lost in the post match analysis was the substitution masterclasses of Benetiz who saw fit to give Ba a full 10 minutes in the home leg and surpassed himself last night with, chasing 2 goals, taking off the centre back......for another centre back and when you're in desperately in need of 2 goals and need to start throwing the kitchen sink in, you obviously throw on.....the sub left back
But we'd have been doing a lot worse under Robbie.....allegedly....
